The analytical characterization of coverage probability in finite three-dimensional wireless networks has long remained an open problem, hindered by the loss of spatial independence in finite-node settings and the coupling between link distances and interference in bounded geometries. This paper closes this gap by presenting the first exact analytical framework for coverage probability in finite 3D networks modeled by a binomial point process within a cylindrical region. To bypass the intractability that has long hindered such analyses, we leverage the independence structure, convolution geometry, and derivative properties of Laplace transforms, yielding a formulation that is both mathematically exact and computationally efficient. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations verify the analysis and demonstrate significant accuracy gains over conventional Poisson-based models. The results generalize to any confined 3D wireless system, including aerial, underwater, and robotic networks.
